I have a HP Photosmart Premium C309g-m printer. There is no matching driver in the list in CUPS installed on my raspberry pi. I tried to run sudo hp-setup but the terminal said sudo: hp-setup: command not found I just need to find a suitable driver for my printer.

Background info: My raspberry pi 2 runs raspbian lite (however I installed a gui manually, raspbian is based on debian) and it is connected to the printer over Wi-Fi

EDIT: I am following this guide

It looks like HP makes a driver for your device: https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/supported_devices/index . To use it, you'll need to first install HPLIP from here: https://developers.hp.com/hp-linux-imaging-and-printing/gethplip , selecting your OS (Debian) and running the tool.

  • When I run HPLIP it complains that it doesn't know what software to use to run it. What software (or terminal command) do I need to use to run it. – Jeremy Apr 10 '19 at 16:38
  • EDIT: I can use sudo sh (file name) – Jeremy Apr 10 '19 at 17:24

    Note: if you don't need specifically the latest and greatest version of HPLIP, you can simply say `apt install hplip` - it's in the standard Debian repository, and so probably in raspbian too. – telcoM Apr 10 '19 at 22:32
